Learn about the highlights of the Impossible Finance project with 3 tokens: IF, IFUSD & IDIA Token in the article below.
What is Impossible Finance?
Impossible Finance is a suite of financial products that includes an AMM (automated market maker), Launchpad (fundraising platform), and Incubator similar to Y Combinator in traditional finance
Impossible Finance Highlights
As an AMM, the project aims to expand its influence by building a fundraising platform. This platform will help:
- Ordinary users: Provide access to top-tier deals and opportunities to build an ecosystem of fundraising projects on the platform.
- Projects: Not only provide “Fair Launch” but also “Smart Launch,” connecting projects with top-tier VCs and ordinary users.
The project will have 2 tokens:
- IF: Impossible Finance governance token.
- IDIA (IF Decentralized Incubator Access): Launchpad governance token and used to participate in IDO.
Initial projects will be in the following categories: User-facing Tools, Assets (Synths), Markets (DEXs and AMMs), NFTs, Lending, Scaling, Privacy, and Infrastructure. Projects may fit into multiple categories. Other categories can be added by the community through IF governance.
IDIA holders also control IDIADAO, an on-chain fund used to invest in projects on Impossible Finance, with profits used for the “Buyback & Make” IDIA mechanism.
A highlight of Impossible Finance is that the team does not follow the IDO path of previous IDO projects, but wants to participate in advising projects preparing for token sales in terms of technology, model, etc., based on the experience of Impossible Finance, with Calvin Chu – Founder of the project, having previously worked on the project appraisal team of Binance Launchpad.
Some typical projects from Binance Launchpad: Band Protocol, Polygon (formerly Matic), Axie Infinity, The Sandbox, …
IF’s model will filter out many users who come to IDO for short-term profits through b2d – business to developer: Selecting quality projects for Launching, thereby attracting users.
If you have read the old WhitePaper, you will see another token: IFUSD is a Synthetic Stablecoin, minted from IF, which is the main currency for project fundraising. But in the new WhitePaper version, the project has removed this token, so be careful not to be scammed.
On August 17, 2021, the IDIA token of Impossible Finance was also IDO on the project’s own launchpad, as well as the first IDO on Impossible Finance.
